About this user
I'm an avid birder and aspiring ornithologist. I suppose that is what's most important to learn about me. I've had a deal of experience working with exotic birds, and have several psittacines that share my home. The most prominent in my life is Cielo, the Moluccan Cockatoo. I will likely make a separate channel featuring videos for him so stay tuned if you're interested.
As for favorites, psittacines, corvids, mousebirds, cranes, and nightjars and allies are what I enjoy learning about most, though all birds are great. It's hard to choose.
After birds I adore cetaceans, cephalopods, and dinosaurs. Whales and dolphins have been a more recent addition and I owe lots of the developing obsession to a close friend of mine. :P
Lags and orcas are easily my favorites. A whale watching trip in Puget Sound was where I got my first glimpse at any cetacean, and I'm pleased to say that J28, Polaris, was the first orca I ever saw. Since then I've been to the Vancouver Aquarium, SeaWorld San Diego, and I plan on going to the Shedd Aquarium soon.
Corky, Kasatka, Orkid, and Nakai have become very special to me and I can't wait to see them again.
On the topic of captivity I find myself neutral. Everything is circumstantial and there are specific facilities I will not attend due to questionable animal treatment. Though some of the best and most enlightening experiences I've had have been in zoos and marine parks, all of which had well-adjusted animals and top of the line care.
While on sensitive topics I guess I'll say that I'm a vegetarian and it is my decision. I will not harass you about your eating habits unless you harass mine, I honestly don't like arguing and it gets very old very quickly.
Sweet ninja Jesus, I never shut up. XD; Well, now onto the fun stuff... eheh.
Now that we've agonizingly gone through my main interests we can get down to business. I will likely post personal footage here someday, and when I do it is free for use UNDER THE CONDITION that I am credited. No one likes thieves. ;D
If my material is used I would always like to see what it was used in so feel free to drop me a pm.
That said, be sure you are using my footage ONLY, no taking material from music videos! I have received permission from people who aren't so lenient and they have full rights to their material that must be respected! Consequences will result in the deletion of your video at the LEAST if you are caught. Don't risk it. I will clearly label videos that have usable clips.
Thanks for reading, I know I've gotten on the wrong side of some folks, and I'm sorry for it. The internet is neither a fair nor reasonable place to judge people so I try not to hold grudges.
